I won't choose just one, but three. Chloe Dao, Kentaro and Shantall. Siriano was amazing, of course. But a little too much boy wonder for me. He's a very talented hustler. Emilio Sosa is gorgeously gifted. He shouldn't have toned it down for his finale runway. He's a very successful costume designer on Broadway. Two time Tony nominated and very busy. (I know he didn't win PR:)

It’s kind of like winning is a curse…apparently until recently all the “winners” had no ownership rights for their designs for anything they did. Tim Gunn had to quit to get them to change that and he forced them to make it retroactive to the first contract any designer contestant had with them. They agreed but then reneged and he had to quit a second time to force it to happen.

And not only for creative people

I never understood how they judge the contestants. One time they criticize them because they make something boring then when they do out there they tell them to make something that is timeless and classic. Frankly, the high-end designers seem to do things that most people could never or would never wear.

Making clothes for the masses isn't what "high" fashion is all about. Of course nobody would wear most of what you saw on PR or any runway (couldn't even begin to afford it mostly and how many of us are 6'2" and weigh 100 pounds!). It's all about showing your creative style and talent and "eye" for what can be done fashion wise. It's a big "sell". See us? This is what we can do.

The only winner that I recognize that career has flourished is Christian Siriano.

Christian has done very well.

It just sounds like its a lot of work to keep up with the demand of fashion. You have to keep coming up with new ideas and the competition must be deadly. I think I would rather just selling clothing in smaller venues, wearable clothes and nothing artsy all the time.

The problem is creative types usually have no business sense whatsoever. They can't run a business. They think that they're going to build a fashion empire like Michael Kohrs, but that's not going to happen.

They pick the winners before the show shoots...and the producers, not the judges pick the winner AND project runway owns the rights to recreate anything you make on the show. That’s why I didn’t go on there

Gretchen Jones looks a little bit to me like Karen Carpenter, the singer. If she would dye her hair dark she would look more like her and she just reminds me of her how the way she acts and facial expressions. Karen was a very lovely person.

Gretchen should have Never won.

I don't think of Jeffrey as disappearing off the face off Earth at all. He's actually been pretty successful and now has a children's line

Tim about Ashley was exactly right... even the models walked like rock people

I love Dom!!! ❤

Some designers find work with labels, for paper pattern companies, becoming stylist/dressers. There are so many paths besides your own label.

Christian remains #1 in my book. The 2022 show a month ago was gorgeous.

Michelle was talented but she obviously had personality problems. Most tortured artists have problems. The fashion industry is a cut throat industry where only savvy and unscrupulous people survive. Unless you have major money backing you or you are happy to sell out your soul, it isn't really a lucrative career path.

Who can succeed with those contracts?

You can have all the talent in the world..........but if you don't have a business sense or support of those who do, you won't survive! The fashion business is totally cut throat and not for the faint-hearted!

The show is supposed to be about thr next thing in fashion. Instead it always comes down to what will sell. I mean when your designs sell at JCP your main buyer is office basics Betty.

I mean Brats dolls def had a sloot era.

I wonder how things changed for Michelle after winning the all winners season

This video is kind of misleading. You mention that Dom won season 12 and All stars. Yet, Michelle did the same, but you didn't mention that. Other winners listed here are more present on social media and have successful careers, just not the same as like Christian.

Gretchen was such a bully

Y'all need to look up Tim Gunns interview about all the BS that went on

There are practically the majority of the winners. Which leads us to conclude that the ineffable "project runway" is an antics that only enhances the ego of the insufferable winners such as Jefreey Sebelia or Gretchen Jones, who were unbearable and less talented than many who came in second or third places. Exactly all those who should not have won, won.

Everybody who loses 5 lbs or goes through a divorce suddenly thinks they can start a "podcast" offering up advice to people. The hubris is unreal. How about a few inspirational posts on your social media then move on.

I respected Project Runway after Gretchen Jones win. Why? Because they chose substance over style. Mondo was good and well liked but Gretchen had an evolved artistic POV that the fashion industry was lacking. Nobody was selling quality clothing design of that indigenous American style at the time. The panel bemoaned her but she remained steadfast against their attempts to alter her artistic vision. It wasn't till the final battle that they realized how good she was.

Ok

I believe the only person dad was happy for Gretchen was herself. I disliked her and her designs since day one.
